Worth noticing
The page says the Race Pilot Program drew 37 applicants, with two candidates remaining; these are campaign-reported figures.

Field notes

The page lays out a training timeline: it says Yamauchi earned a commercial pilot qualification after seven months, then an instructor certificate five months later, through self-study rather than a standard flight-school curriculum. It identifies him as one of two remaining candidates from 37 applicants to the Race Pilot Program. These figures and claims are reported by the campaign.
